Which Should You Buy?
This one is a divisive powerhouse, hailed as a masterpiece by some and deemed cloying by others. If you crave a bold, opulent tuberose-leather with beastly performance, Charade might just be your next obsession. It's a statement, not a whisper.
Notorious is a bold, complex beast of a fragrance. It's not for the faint-hearted, nor is it a blind buy, but those who 'get' it absolutely swear by its smoky, leathery depth. A true love-it-or-hate-it scent.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Charade's immense projection and longevity make it unsuitable for an office setting. Its rich, sensual character and significant sillage are perfect for dates or formal events where you want to make a lasting impression.
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
With strong sillage and longevity, Notorious is far too potent for the office. Its unique, bold character makes it an excellent choice for a statement on a date or an evening event, though it's too intense for everyday wear.
